About Me:
Rob Bertholf is an interactive marketing consultant and search marketing expert.

Rob’s career started by serving his country with two tours of active duty in the U.S. Air Force, where he was awarded a Commendation Medal, three Achievement Medals and selected two years in a row as USAFE's Communication and Information Management Professional of the Year. He was also recognized with a commendation from the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff for his development of a classified web-based tasking software.

Before striking out on his own, Rob was the Director of Web Innovation for ResortQuest Hawaii/Aston Hotels and Resorts where he lead the web services team. He then went on to found The Zeppo Network, Inc., a software development company and IP holder for the successful ZeppOS Total Site Management tool which he invented. Empowered Internet Solutions was founded by Rob in 2005 as a software distributor for his software and during his tenure as CEO grew to be Hawaii’s largest web solution provider with nearly 700 clients including national names such as Dominos Pizza, Budweiser, Jamba Juice as well as many recognized local brands.

Rob's fascination for the Internet and web content management date back to early high school years which led him to develop an online teen community portal, Zeppo, which became an instant success receiving recognition from Yahoo! and Lycos.

Rob is now an internationally recognized strategic interactive marketing expert and authority on search engine marketing ranking in the top 10 in Google for "Search Engine Marketing Expert". He is also a regular keynote speaker/lecturer for corporate and academic institutions, and on occasion consults for the state of Hawaii about future Internet trends.

PBN Book of Lists (Web Design) - Analyzed...

On Friday, Pacific Business News published their list of Web Designers, it is always so interesting to take a more in-depth look at the details to see what they really mean.

I actually liked that we jumped right into the conversation though - unconference style - even tho none of our slide decks got launched!
